My co-workers pizza fell off her desk and onto the ground. We're starting up a relief fund if anyone would like to donate.

They actually evacuated my building (gov) and sent us all home a couple hours early, as did most of the other places in DC . I then proceeded to have a nice 3.5 hour nightmare of a commute home. Bike night at Hooters followed by a nice little night ride helped start the recovery process.

I heard that a few people in Brookville felt it but none of us here at the office, in Clarion, felt siht. Though my dramatic boss claims that the mapping plans and other things we had hanging in our conference room were astrewn as she went around making sure the rest of the pictures in the office were straight.

I can see where you west coasters are coming from though. It would be our response to you guys starting a tornado thread.
